The receiving Party will hold in confidence, and will not disclose (or permit or suffer its personnel to disclose) any Confidential Information to any person or entity except to a director, officer, employee, outside consultant, or advisor (collectively “Representatives”) who has a need to know such Confidential Information in the course of the performance of their duties for the receiving party and who is bound by a duty of confidentiality no less protective of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information than these Terms. The receiving party and its Representatives will use such Confidential Information only for the purpose for which it was disclosed and will not use or exploit such Confidential Information for its own benefit or the benefit of another person without the prior written consent of the disclosing party.

Notwithstanding any other provision of these Terms, both parties acknowledge that any use of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information in a manner inconsistent with the provisions of these Terms may cause the disclosing party irreparable and immediate damage for which remedies other than injunctive relief may be inadequate. Therefore, both parties agree that, in addition to any other remedy to which the disclosing party may be entitled hereunder, at law or equity, the disclosing party will be entitled to an injunction or injunctions (without the posting of any bond and without proof of actual damages) to restrain such use in addition to other appropriate remedies available under applicable law.
